Periphery Release Behind-the-Scenes ‘Juggernaut’ Webisodes

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28, 2014 – Periphery, who recently announced the release of not one, but two, new albums (Juggernaut: Alpha and Juggernaut: Omega) on Jan. 27 via Sumerian Records, have premiered the first of five “webisodes,” which take fans behind-the-scenes of the Juggernaut recordings (http://youtu.be/K6eA9KFuie8).

“The recording of Juggernaut was a very rewarding, but at times a very challenging process,” explained drummer Matt Halpern. “These webisodes will give the viewers and listeners a chance to hear about the process first hand, and get a fresh, ‘right out of the studio’ impression from each of us about our personal experience with this record.”

The five-part series will run through mid-January with the next clip debuting on Dec. 10.

The band recently streamed “The Scourge,” the first song to be heard from the forthcoming releases, via Revolver Magazine (http://www.revolvermag.com/news/periphery-premiere-new-song-the-scourge.html). Mark Holcomb said of the track, “’The Scourge’ shows off a darker, more brooding side of the first album, Alpha, and it touches on some of the melodic and lyrical themes referenced throughout the two albums.”

Juggernaut: Alpha and Juggernaut: Omega pre-order bundles are available now via http://sumerianmerch.com. The physical release of Juggernaut: Omega will be packaged with The JuggerDoc, a documentary on the making of the two albums.
